Slip rate gradients along the eastern Kunlun fault

Tectonics, 2007
Whether strike‐slip fault systems in Eurasia accomplish eastward extrusion of Tibetan crust and lithosphere depends largely on the kinematics of deformation at the fault tip. Here we present new slip rate determinations using millennial‐scale geomorphic markers from sites along the easternmost segment of the Kunlun fault in north central Tibet.

Slip Rates and Slip Modes in an Actively Mode-Locked Laser

SIAM Journal on Applied Dynamical Systems, 2020
The paper addresses the equation of the complex Ginzburg-Landau (CGL) type which models the operation of mode-locked fiber lasers. By means of the perturbation theory, the underlying CGL partial differential equation is reduced to a system of ODEs for parameters of a set of optical solitons.

Slip at High Shear Rates

Physical Review Letters, 2008
There are contradictory published data on the behavior of fluid slip at high shear rates. Using three methodologies (molecular dynamics simulations, an analytical theory of slip, and a Navier-Stokes-based calculation) covering a range of fluids (bead-spring liquids, polymer solutions, and ideal gas flows) we show that as shear rate increases, the ...

Effect of Slip Rate on Stress Drop

pure and applied geophysics, 1986
Recent observations made by Kanamori and Allen about earthquake recurrence time and average stress drop revealed a very interesting relation: earthquakes with longer recurrence times have higher average stress drops. They attributed the difference in stress drop to the difference in long-term average slip rate. To interpret their result in terms of the

Slip weakening in rocks and analog materials at co-seismic slip rates

Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, 2008
Abstract Determination of co-seismic slip resistance in earth faults is critical for understanding the magnitude of shear-stress reduction and hence the near-fault acceleration that can occur during earthquakes. Also, knowledge of shear resistance dependency on slip velocity, slip distance, normal stress, and surface roughness is fundamental ...

The slip casting rate for quartz ceramics

Refractories, 1973
In an investigation of the influence of the principal factors on the rate of slip casting quartz ceramics it was established that the density (porosity) of the deposited cast body is the main determining factor in the casting rate. The density of the body depends on the degree of stabilization, the pH, and the granularity of the slip suspension, and on

Liquid Slip in Nanoscale Channels as a Rate Process

Physical Review Letters, 2007
Liquids flowing through nanoscale channels can slip; that is, there is a discontinuity in the mean speed between the walls and the first layer of liquid molecules. The mechanisms of slip are unclear. Using numerical simulation, we find an exponential dependence of slip on solvation pressure which can be explained by treating slip as a rate process ...

Late Quaternary slip rates and slip partitioning on the Alpine Fault, New Zealand

Journal of Structural Geology, 2001
Abstract Published geological data on Late Quaternary offsets on the Alpine Fault, New Zealand, have been assembled into a common format and analysed with respect to uncertainties. Uncertainties arise mainly from measurement of offset features, relating apparent offsets to actual fault slip, and dating the offset features.

Backstripping dip‐slip fault histories: apparent slip rates for the Miocene of the Vienna Basin

Terra Nova, 2002
Backstripped basement subsidence histories from both the hanging wall and the footwall blocks adjacent to synsedimentary normal faults can be used to reconstruct the sense of fault motion through time and to quantify the vertical component of fault slip.
